1. Introduction
This document explains the protocol for Remote Control Panels(AUX Panel) for AV-HS6000 (2MELive Switcher). (Protocol between AV-HS6000 and the AUX Panel.)
The communication specification is based on TCP/IP or UDP/IP.
1 packet starts from [STX]0x02 and ends with [ETX]0x03.
Command consist of 4character followed by : (colon).
There is the case multiple data will be sent , still each data is colon-delimited.
Numerical data is sent in ascii format.

2. About Communication
Communication between AUX Panel and AV-HS6000
It is possible to change IP address with AV-HS6000 menu to use port (LAN side) of AV-HS6000.
IP adores of AUX Panel should be assigned correctly according to IP address domain ofAV-HS6000.
Communication between AUX Panel – AV-HS6000 will be changed TCP/IP or UDP/IP depends oncontents.
TCP/IP: Port 60020:AUX Panel -> AV-HS6000[XPT switch, AUTO execution]
UDP/IP: Port 60020:AV-HS6000 -> AUX Panel[Tally, XPT status]

3. Process in every field
1) AV-HS6000
AV-HS6000 sends following two commands to AUX Panel on regular interval.
ABST command (Status of XPT and Tally on each buses.)
ATST command (Status of transition.)
SPAT command (Status of AUX or PinP transition pattern.)2) AUX Panel
AUX Panel should send SPAT command (Parameter1:0, Parameter2:00) on every 500m secinterval. Because AV-HS6000 needs to know if AUX Panel is connected and working.
But AV-HS6000 doesn’t send response to SPAT command.

4. List of Command**Communication path REMt is the command which can be used for AUX Panel to AV-HS6000 via
TCP/IP.

Command Sequence
AV-HS6000 start sending udp after establishing connection between AV-HS6000 and AUX Panel.
After establishing connection, AUX Panel send SBUS,SAUT,SPAT commands.
The example of communication sequence is shown below.
